Dutch cookie law
According to Dutch law I am legally required to inform you that cookies are used on this site. I choose to do so on this page.
The cookie law is a bizarre and inept law, that Dutch politicians in their infinite wisdom, or rather plain ignorance have seen fit to create. This law protects noone, it serves noone, and its intention can only be seen as a deliberate attempt to destroy a beautiful and thriving industry in the Netherlands, namely internet technology. If you are a Dutch or European citizen and you care about the internet, then please vote the incompetent and sometimes corrupt politicians who designed and/or voted in favor of this inept law, or equivalent laws out of office. These laws infringe on your human and constitutional rights! In particular your right to freedom of speech and the right to free enterprise. And while I am at it, to my dear American friends, say no to SOPA/PIPA, and say no to C11 to my Canadian friends.

Snide retort to politicians
See how easy it is. And this knowledge is far more effective than any lawyers and judges, or politicians for that matter.
